描述
Discover what inspired and influenced C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien on this more intellectually paced walking tour for adults. See inside CS Lewis's Magdalen College worth £10 entry per person.
Find out more about the Inklings, an informal literary discussion group associated with the University of Oxford, while getting an introduction to the city's history and university life. See inspiring sights related to C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien on a 2-2.5-hour tour of the sights where they worked and relaxed, including the pubs they enjoyed.
At Magdalen, discover a beautiful medieval hall, chapel, and quadrangle as well as lovely gardens and a deer park. Walk in the footsteps of C.S. Lewis and his friends along the famous Addison's path where they strolled on many midsummer evenings to discuss their ideas.
As well as the colleges, your knowledgeable guide will take you on a route through the city of Oxford to take in many famous sights. Visit inside St. Mary's University Church where C.S. Lewis developed his ideas through sermons. Hear about the likes of Cardinal Newman who preached there too, and learn about the Oxford Martyrs — Latimer, Ridley, and Cranmer — from the time of 'Bloody Mary'.
A pub/refreshment stop is optional on the tour. Many people who book this tour happen to be theology alumni but the guides are not necessarily themselves religious people, so much as very well educated and curious persons.
On any dates, when Magdalen may be closed, we will replace entry with Tolkien's college called Exeter college. If neither college is open, we will forewarn you before the tour and offer free reschedule or cancellation, if desired.

Exeter college closures are not listed as entry to Exeter is hard to predict until the day itself
Magdalen College entry might not be possible on some dates but if you book on such a date, we will always forewarn you of the fact or we will simply remove the date from the sale. That way, you can then request to cancel, reschedule, or replace with entry to another venue.
